The War and Treaty’s Michael and Tanya Trotter grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, and Washington, DC, respectively, but both have family roots in the South. They also grew up in the musical traditions of their churches – Tanya in the Black Baptist Church and Michael in the Seventh Day Adventist Church – where they learned the power of song to move people. After becoming a father at a very young age, Michael eventually joined the armed forces and served in Iraq and Germany, where he took up songwriting as a way of dealing with his experiences there. Meanwhile Tanya embarked on a singing and acting career after a breakthrough appearance in Sister Act 2 alongside Whoopi Goldberg and Lauryn Hill. Now, after a long and sometimes traumatic journey, Michael and Tanya are married, touring, winning all sorts of awards, and set to release their fifth album together, and their fourth as The War and Treaty. Sid talks to Michael and Tanya about the new record, Plus One , as well as their collaboration with Miranda Lambert, what it was like to record at FAME studios in Muscle Shoals, and how they’re blending country, soul, gospel, and R&B.

1 Technical Feasibility, Business Priority mismatch and other designer rants — Design Roundtable 3 46:44
In the third designers' roundtable, we bring you quality rants with Arjun Arunkumar (Swiggy), Hardik Pandya (Google), and Madhuri Maram (Xperian). What's something that happens everywhere with all designers but we don't talk about it enough? In this episode, we spoke about technical debt, feasibility, and bandwidth and how it affects the work of designers. How can designers build shared understanding and when, at times, you have to obsessed with pixel-perfection? From there, we go on to discussing how designers and design do not have the last say or veto on the final design, output, and user experience and how do we handle that. How is that different from a company that is plain bad at making quality products? And at last, we discuss all the times when the business, client, or non-designers prioritise aesthetics over usability and UX and the beautiful words they use while doing it. In this episode: Arjun Arunkumar is a UX designer at Swiggy. He is @averageintel on twitter and @jedijun on instagram Hardik Pandya is a Designer at Google. He is @hvpandya on twitter and instagram Madhuri Maram is co-founder of Xperian and is @iruhdam on Instagram and @iruhdam24 on twitter…

Відтворити Пізніше Відтворити Пізніше Списки Подобається ПодобаєтьсяThis roundtable turned to a conversation between the two — Abhinav Chhikara & Sidharth, since the other guests couldn't make it. We talked about several topics but mostly covered: *Switching to design career* - Switching from a non-design industry to design or designer roles - Why self-learning is the future of design and why & how you should make your own "path" - A framework by Abhinav on how you can track your progress and what you can expect as you start to self-learn design *Switching from one design specialization to another* - Why may you want to change — what are some good reasons? - Switching from Graphic Design to Product Design - Product Designers learning or moving to Motion Design and vice versa *Generalist vs specialist & multi-disciplinary designers* - Difference and common things between a generalist and a specialist - How requirements and opportunities change as you shift between the two Stories - We frequently share our success — let's talk about one story of failure and what you'd learn from it *Side projects* Abhinav is working on www.10kdesigners.com — with a goal to help 10,000 new self-taught designers emerge in the industry with a network of industry experts. His YouTube Channel, uisources.com, booklets.io, and many future projects will be under that mother brand. After several failed attempts at building some apps, I have moved back to blog ging, vlogging, speaking at colleges, creating content, & sharing his journey — watching folks from college enter the industry and d o well, over the years, and the possibility of being a part of their story is what keeps me going. --- Abhinav Chhikara is a design educator, digital creator, youtuYouTuberber, and mentor to many designers across the country.

1 Building a career using the internet — King Sidharth's speech at PSG College Tech, Coimbatore 41:16
While each one of us is born naturally curious, the education system & our mental-models, that our society runs on, train it out of us. Owning and honing this curiosity can change our lives — especially in the age of the internet. With the internet, education yourself and building a career & wealth has become the easiest it has ever been. You can pick-up any soft-skill, learn a language, learn to design, build an app, learn programing, find jobs and freelance gigs across the world, collaborate with folks, or even network and build a brand. We can either use the internet to stalk our crushes and ex-s or use to our advantage. My journey with curiosity & internet led me to try out my hands at the business starting at the age of 12, and then being a part of Indian startup ecosystem with Instamojo (2012-2019) and now across the world with Headout. Working startups & building industry-changing products is my calling. Startups create wealth — and wealth is better than selling time to get money. However, wealth & success both are subjective — for some, it can be owning shares, IPs, or degrees, for others, it can be a stable relationship, living a healthy & natural life. So how do you find and define your criteria of success? How do you #findyourpassion? The first step is to expose yourself to various ideas until you start getting interested in something. You can use the internet to do this — Wikipedia & YouTube is your friend here. (both free!) The second step is to try and invest effort into your interest and gain some skill & experience — you can find tutorials & people online to help you with this. Once we start putting effort and see the results — that's when half the "interest" drop from viable options. Some that stick will turn into a passion as you continue to invest focus & time in it. In the world where most mundane jobs will be taken over by AI, just a college degree won't be enough. More and more startups & jobs will revolve around multi-disciplinary people. Don't wait for a sign form the universe — skills & learnings compound over time — startup today. --- Speech by King Sidharth at PSG College of Technology, Coimbatore on 22 Feb 2020. --- Sidharth has been part of several startups in the Indian startup ecosystem — from Cleartax & Instamojo to now at Headout solving product & design problems. He's given talks at 40+ colleges and events talking about future careers, startups, self-learning, and design, including at two TEDx events.
